From Expanding Your Horizons

Hi, I'm Paula. My favorite sport is swimming. I like swimming because it's great to relax on a summer day and it's really really fun. Unfortunately, I can only swim during the summer, and not all year long because of homework and a busy schedule of school. But I'm glad to even swim at all! Me and my team often go to meets, which are really fun. Me and my friends don't win most of the time, but we have a great time hanging out together. I first started swimming when I was little. I was terrified of it at first, but I grew up loving it. Before being on the swim team, I had to go through swimming lessons first. It was really fun, and after each unit, we would get awards and lollipops! I immediately went to the bronze team, but I realized that it was too hard for me, and it was making me very tired. I went to the super swimmers team, and it was right for me. Now, I have a blast with my buddies, and hopefully, a greater time than last summer this summer.
